Juliancolton Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 A little chilly out there this morning at 47... and to think I almost let some folks in neighboring subforums convince me to install for this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Feels great out tonight... thoughts of autumn already running wild. I really do feel a good bit more contended when it's cool outside. Meanwhile, 70F inside my little grow operation here (just veggies, sorry to disappoint). Seedlings won't skip a beat when it gets frosty in the morning.

IrishRob17 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Not sure if I picked up anything overnight but I had .71 in the bucket last I checked last night. That reminded me of some of the nor'easters we've seen where I get 6" and LI gets 30" of snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 It poured here again last night. I was drifting in and out so don't know how long it rained for but it was a while and it was coming down hard at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were some low reading ones, like around .70", so maybe they clogged too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snywx Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 0.87" event total so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 The differences in measured amounts are pretty significant. It seems like the heaviest line wasn't measured well at all on this side of the river yesterday. There are spots showing absurdly low amounts compared to areas within a few miles (or less) with reasonable measurements. Was the line only a few miles wide and running almost due N/S? It absolutely poured here for a few hours, there's no way I'm under 1". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the season for clogged electronic gauges, I'm sure plenty got clogged making yesterday's rain totals that much more confusing/interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 I had ~4" in my garbage can. The top.was left open when it was picked up a little before 7 and I left it there until this morning. There were no measurements anywhere near that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Hey how can I find the number of days that it rained/precipitated for a particular period of time? I'm curious about March and April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used the calendar here before: https://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KMGJ/2017/5/8/MonthlyCalendar.html?req_city=Montgomery&req_state=NY&reqdb.zip=12549&reqdb.magic=1&reqdb.wmo=99999#calendar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As wet as it has been we need the wind to dry out the surface. Now that things have pretty much leafed out the sun doesn't get down to the forest floor so wind is the best option. 23 minutes ago, IrishRob17 said: But we just had a historic storm this past weekend... Nobody said historic, well... maybe one or two of the rain lovers. It was pretty significant though which is the point I was making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty significant though which is the point I was making. Was I talking to you?! No one was! Dozens of QPF maps posted all last week and then folks are arguing its not about the rain totals. Were there any Flood Advisories issued? I really don't care I just find it all interesting how things get twisted. That said, I was serious about keeping the rain limited to weekday overnights, lets make that happen folks. WHo is ready to install? I'm not, still too soon and not a long enough stretch of heat yet IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
